Lead Direct Care Staff Member Resume Example
The quality and strength of my character has always made itself known without my needing to talk myself up. The skills and abilities I bring to my current job are well known to those I work with in my current position and cannot be attributed to any one source. They are a culmination of all of my life experiences to date, including all prior jobs, relationships, and most importantly, my successes and failures as a parent to an exceptional child. They have come to serve me in this career because of my efforts to grow and learn from them. I am a hardworking, dependable team player who leads by example. I also know that what is a job to me is daily life for my residents. They are adults and are under no obligation to learn or grow, but we can provide them with, and guide them to opportunities that give them the best chance for success. I am dedicated to creating a happy, positive environment in service of these goals and strive to help others do so as well.
